What we're looking for at Senior level
You build infrastructure that engineering teams trust without thinking about it. You think in systems and notice failure modes before they fire. You leave every platform you touch more observable and easier to operate than you found it.
Required
- Substantial production experience with Kubernetes at scale — cluster management, networking, pod and service management
- Substantial experience with Terraform or equivalent infrastructure-as-code, including multi-environment patterns
- Experience designing and operating GitOps workflows (Flux, Argo CD, or similar)
- Deep understanding of cloud-native architectures — microservices, service meshes, containerisation
- Experience designing and operating CI/CD pipelines including Docker builds
- Demonstrated incident management experience — leading complex troubleshooting and post-mortems
Comfortable communicating infrastructure decisions to non-specialist stakeholders
-
Valued
- Hands-on experience with NGINX Ingress Controller — path-based routing, TLS termination, load balancing
- Experience with GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps Pipelines, or comparable CI/CD platforms
- Production experience across multiple cloud providers (AWS, GCP, Azure)
- Solid grasp of IT security principles — network security, IAM, compliance
Background in streaming, media, or high-concurrency consumer platforms
-
What we're looking for at Mid level
You take a well-scoped infrastructure problem and run with it. You ask good questions early, flag risks clearly, and notice when your own work could be done more safely or more cleanly next time.
Required
- Production experience with Kubernetes — cluster management, networking fundamentals, pod and service management
- Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code concepts (Terraform, OpenTofu, or similar)
- Experience or familiarity with GitOps workflows
- Working understanding of cloud-native architectures
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines including Docker builds
- Good troubleshooting skills under operational pressure
Comfortable working with development teams to support clean integration
-
Valued
- Hands-on experience with Terraform or OpenTofu
- Familiarity with Flux or equivalent GitOps tools
- Experience configuring NGINX Ingress Controller
- Familiarity with GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps Pipelines, or similar
- Exposure to at least one cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure)
Foundational understanding of IT security principles

Who Thrives Here
DevOps work at Deltatre exists where ambiguity meets responsibility. The infrastructure you build and operate is what other engineers rely on to ship product, and the people who do this work well treat that responsibility seriously without performing it. You take quality and reliability as personal standards, not abstractions. You ask good questions about the actual operational reality — not the diagram on the whiteboard — and you push back when something doesn't make sense.
This is an environment that rewards initiative and depth of thought. If you find satisfaction in the moments when an incident reveals something the team didn't know about its own systems, and in the discipline of leaving things slightly more observable than you found them, this is likely a good fit.
Not sure which level is right for you? Apply anyway and tell us where you think you sit. We'll figure it out together.
Process and what to expect
Salary starts from of €30,000 at entry level rising to €90,000 for those with significant relevant experience. Where you land depends on your experience, technical background, and the stack you bring. If your expectations sit outside the range, tell us anyway —we're happy to have an open conversation. Internal progression is assessed through a structured process combining a technical assessment and a competency-based interview. The role falls under CCNL Commercio| D.Lgs. 96/2026
Assessment stages:
-
Introductory conversation: this is a step for us to get to know each other better, and for us to answer all questions you might have around Deltatre.
- Take-Home Assessment: we have a coding challenge waiting for you, to grab a sense of what you'll be dealing with. This step is the entry point in our process, and mandatory to acccess to the followng steps.
- 1-hour Technical round of Interview: we will use your Assessment as a starting point for a discussion with Senior team members in the video team. You will do code review and discuss additional technical aspects in details. This conversation, combined with the output of the assessment will allow us to make a solid technical evaluation.
- 1-hour Competency Based Interview: we are going to ask you some situational questions around how you deal with real-life scenarios at work. Easier doing it, more than explaining it!
If any of these formats would be difficult for you, tell us — we adjust regularly and can usually accommodate.
Accessibility and accommodation questions are welcome at any stage, including before you apply. Tell us what would work for you.
